Corsair Flash Padlock USB Flash Drive Review
Legit Reviews posted a review on the Corsair Flash Padlock USB Flash Drive

Corsair has done an excellent job with a design that is secure without the need for platform dependent software or complex and expensive biometric devices. While the Padlock is not the most fashionable design, this is clearly a product of function over form. Data transfer rates are ample enough for most users and the only real drawback is that the max capacity available is 2GB, which I expect Corsair to expand before long...

Lexar JumpDrive Secure II 4GB Review
XSReviews has reviewed the Lexar JumpDrive Secure II 4GB

USB drives are so prolific that they are now beginning to be given away free promotionally. There are literally thousands of different makes, models and capacities; all of which operate at different speeds. Of recent, the focus has been moving away from sheer storage to the speed at which you can fill the provided space, with people becoming ever more impatient.

With the 4GB barrier broken a long time ago, there have been more and more devices falling into this bracket of size. They are mostly the same and rarely have differentiating features, and most come with an encryption program to stop an opportunistic thief running off with your important documents.

Today I have the Lexar JD Secure II 4GB which has a nifty little feature that separates it from its other 4GB cousins.

ICY DOCK MB663UR-1S Review
Bjorn3D takes a look at the ICY DOCK MB663UR-1S

Did you ever have a laptop go bad and you forgot to backup the precious data? Professional data retrieval could cost a significant amount of dollars. A simpler solution would be to purchase a 2.5’’ external/internal storage enclosure which would allow you to connect the hard drive to a desktop for data retrieval. For a retail price of approximately $20, it would be an invaluable investment when it comes to data rescue. Here at Bjorn3D, we have previously looked at ICY Dock’s 2.5 IDE internal/external enclosure and today, we are going to take a look at ICY Dock’s 2.5’’ SATA internal/external enclosure.

Asus P5K3 Premium part 2
Bit-Tech published the second and final part of their Asus P5K3 Premium review

The performance in 2D testing favours //slightly better in the way of the Premium, and even at 1,500MHz it doesn't really extend the lead that much. Also, it's not like you can't just buy some 1,500MHz memory and drop it in a Deluxe, however it seems to be tailored more to preferring lower latency memory like the 1,066MHz DDR3 at 6-6-6-15 instead of 1,333MHz at 7-7-7-20.

Overclocking is not outright superb, although it is certainly capable and stability is much the same story. In all it feels like a very average board for Asus and one just not worthy of the price tag: it can be had for £140 more than an already expensive product combination, it only comes with a three year warranty on the memory and if just one of the 32 chips go the whole board has to be returned. Hats off for the innovation and having the balls to make a product like this, but I wonder if Asus will actually sell enough to recoup at least the development costs? I think this should be chalked down to "nice effort, but stick to what you're good at".
